The Terrace - Bright, Contemporary & Versatile Space at The Terrace


Located in the unrivaled setting of Melbourne’s Royal Botanic Gardens, a true Melbourne icon is revitalized – a conservatory by an ornamental lake. Floor-to-ceiling windows to the right of the space & skylight creates soft, natural light and a bright, airy space while providing a moody, romantic vibe while watching the sunset overlooking the gardens. The Bi-folding doors allow the space to extend out onto the private alfresco patio, providing fresh air and offerings a unique experience of an indoor/outdoor dancefloor. Inside you will find the space boasts quality finishes with terrazzo floors, a luxurious green marble bar, neutral lounging furniture, and an ornate statement pillar. Interchangeable furniture provides countless options, and a private suite can be utilized in multiple ways!

It was tasty karaage chicken bowl, however, the rice was not warm enough. The staff members are not very friendly, but the view and location of the place are great. $6 extra for adding avocado to eggs Benedict sounds a bit too much

The food was nice, atmosphere was lovely. Staff were friendly but could have been a little more attentive!!! The birds are aggressive. Made me laugh when they were trying to go for my nieces chips, they are not scared haha Would go back for a coffee

I have edited my previous 1 star rating to 4 as I visited the cafe again yesterday. The lunch menu was way better than the breakfast I had a couple of weeks ago. Florian was amazing and very efficient. I would definitely go again just because of his good service. This time we sat outside as the weather was good. On my last visit we had to sit in the cramped space inside that was super loud and you could barely walk without disturbing other patrons. Coffee is very average and never extra hot as I always request.

They took soooo long to take our order. And our food didnt come out together so everyone was eating whilst i waited another 10-15 mins. The hotcakes were good, but my friend got the eggs benedict and one of her eggs was hard-boiled in the middle (see photo). Its a great location but its expensive and the service is average.

Attended a wedding dinner reception here. Food was average. Expected it to be better considering it was catering for a wedding dinner party. Entrees, Mains and Side dishes were all served as a sharing plate (which one had to self-serve once its being placed on the table). Desserts (2 different petit four) were brought by servers walking around the venue area with a tray in their hand. Not very ideal considering some people might miss out if they were not seated at their table. Some of the servers weren't very attentive either when being hailed/called for service. Someone on our table found a fish bone in the fish fillet and another found a strand of hair on one of the other dish. Very bad food hygiene standards for a restaurant catering for over 100 pax at a dinner party. Would I return here for a meal again? Probably not.
